Good Glasgow Hostel

Pros: there was a television in the room, it was very warm and the view from the good quite nice/interresting. there was a common area to hang out

Cons: the bathroom and floor could've been slightly cleaner and the free wifi was terrible

staff were friendly and easy to deal with. (obviously used to dealing with young people, laid back but happy to help) Beds were surprisingly comfortable, with sheets provided and the rate was really good. we heard a group of drunk kids when they got in, but their room was not too close to ours so it didn't keep us up. great place to stay on a budget!

Excellent budget hotel near the city centre

Posted Jan 13, 2015

Pros: It was close to the train station and the shopping areas.

Location: The location is very central, with very easy access to the main train station and the shops.

I stopped here for 3 nights and chose this hotel based on the price. I arrived and was able to leave my bag at reception (for a charge) as I arrived before the check in time. The room was basic but clean. The room had single bunk beds, towels and bedding (you make up the bed yourself). There was hand and shower soap. I was on the 7th floor and had no trouble waiting for the lifts. The hotel is manly used by younger travelers so you have to expect some noise at night as people return from nights out. The location of the hotel is excellent being close to Central station and the main shopping areas (St. Enoch shopping centre, Buchanan St. & Argyle Street) Wifi is available free of charge with a good speed, you can upgrade at a small cost. The towels/bedding was not changed over my stay but there are towels at reception so I assume you may have to pay for a towel swap( you need to check this out) There is a bar which also serves food & breakfast in the morning (breakfast is cheaper if you book and pay in advanced) I would stop again and would recommend to travelers on a budget.

Excellent value for money and very clean.

Pros: Clean. Private. Relaxed - could make own drinks and food if needed.

Cons: Provide a mug in the room maybe? If possible do a couple of patrols at night and ask people not to make lots of loud noise ?

Location: Brilliant location - so close to Central Station.

If you are happy with basic, this was a really good value place to stay. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good, and great value. My room was everything I expected. Don't expect it to be cleaned if you are staying a few days - you will need to keep it tidy yourself. Also, there is no crockery in the kitchen - I ended up buying a mug from Poundland down the road. However I felt safe and comfortable and was very happy with the value. The only difficulty was noise at night - 3 of the nights were perfectly fine. One was terrible as there was an all night loud party next door, and one night the fire alarm was set off. Be prepared.
